After two videos I began to calm down. After the 4th I fell asleep. When I awoke this morning my anxiety began to sky rocket back up. I put your video on and began to fall asleep. No medication required. Thank you. Not sure if it's the music or watching the little shrimp but this is by far better than Atavan. You should consider putting on a 24 hour live cast.

    I've been in the hobby a long time and it's really neat seeing how things have changed. I remember in the late 90's early 00's the thought of using a garden soil with compost as the fertilizing layer was a crazy idea for a hobbyist. You have to think, compost is a material that is so high in nitrogen that when a pile in the garden is turned over the nitrogen burn is so hot that it kills any pathogens. I know expert hobbyists have been using methods like this for a long time. But this was before you could find anything on the Internet, it was difficult to share experiences; and a huge percent of what you learned was from monthly subscription magazines, which are loaded with advertisers pushing their products as the best method. Advances in lighting has helped a ton as well. I had tanks with a silly number of t12s and they produced a ton of heat. Oops wasn't planning on posting this much, but it is fun and interesting to look back.

      I get it from local gardening store. it's generic. on the bag, it says main ingredients are chicken manure compost and vermicompost. you can use any kind of organic soil. organic soil means it's got some kind compost in it. don't use soil with chemical fertilizers in it. you can use cow manure compost organic soil also. or just use miracle grow. miracle grow also has bird manure(most likely chicken manure) compost in it. it's in the description.

    Hi Foo,
    After a few months now my large planted growth tank is largely trouble-free. You may recall a few months ago I was troubled with murky algae green water having to have performed about 6 water changes in my first few weeks. While I think there were likely many issues, the prevailing one I believe was lighting. I studied a bit more on lighting and swapped out my LED lights for a different LED set about a month ago and have had continuously phenomenal growth in my plants along with clear water. Persistence pays off. I started a new medium non-ferts/no CO2 fish bowl shaped tank today. My original planted growth tank now has 26 species of plants I can now begin to transplant into new smaller tanks. I greatly thank you for your early assistance as I look to be well on my way with 4 months experience behind me.

      it's something like this. it's shelf making materials. I got them at a local hardware store. the light, I got it from a LFS. you can find something similar by searching PL aquarium light.

      Loose Moose
      The beginning of a fish tank. He’s cycling the tank first before adding fish to it to establish an ammonia cycle.

    I don't understand, please someone help me. I come from the third world countries and no one ever talk about this. Is this supposed to have fish in it or just plant? Is this some kind of art? What is the name of this art?

      It's Aquascaping or Aquatic Gardening, I guess. Since it's only a 5 gallon (20 liter) tank, then I would go without any fish.

      Until the water is properly cycled and the plant and microbe systems have been fully established, there is a large fluctuation in water chemicals that can be deadly to fish and other aquatic animals. The fish get put in a few weeks to a few months later, once everything has stabilized.

    This series is so interesting! I've always been a huge fan of small, contained environments like this one. The result of this set up is just wonderful, and I'm watching every update!
    And, oh, I'd recognize Erik Satie's music anywhere. Great choices! Kevin Macleod is such a great musician too, he played those notes so good.

    I have loved planted aquariums since I was young, I really got interested when i was in high school my biology teacher had a lot of them, brine shrimp was the livestock mostly. Thanks for the great memories I am inspired to create my own and I also have a cat a Male named Bagheera he's 2years old.
